Dear Brad,

I'm praying really hard that God provides this job opportunity for 
you, and that you will be able to sell your house and move.

I'm going to be praying really hard for you and Brenda..

Heavenly Father, Please provide a huge Financial Blessing for Brad 
and Brenda. Lord, I believe that it is your will, that Brad will get 
this job, and that they will be able to sell their house. Lord, I 
pray that they would be closer to South Dakota. Lord, Please give 
Brad and Brenda peace about this situation, and I thank You for 
giving them wisdom, knowledge, love, and the finances to take on this 
task. In Your precious Name, I thank you for what you are doing in 
Brad and Brenda's lives. In your Matchless Name, Amen.

Love and Blessings,

Pat Ferguson
